"significantly worse object avoidance than than the Dreame x40 and L40 ... The best feature of the L40/X40/p10 pro ultra is that they have class leading object avoidance so you don't have to pick up your cat's toys or prep your house every time you want to run the robot meaning you can run it on a daily schedule which will keep your house cleaner. ... I run my X40s daily and they never get stuck on cables, cat toys and other random junk that ends up on the floor."
"The X40 is so far ahead in the object avoidance realm that it's not even a contest. ... I have my Dreame X40 running at midnight every day and never have to worry about it getting stuck on something or caught on something because it's object avoidance works so well, even in the dark and on all surfaces. ... It stays clear of cat toys, cords, socks, paper towels and all sorts of random household junk. ... the fact that I can run the Dreame daily will keep my house cleaner."
"The obstacle avoidance is also very good and I only have the pet in house setting on for pet messes and it recognizes my fake dog poop all the time and drive around it."

"I have also had 0 hair wrap. Both my old Roomba and Shark id have to clean the rollers weekly."
"The Anti-Tangle brush is actually Anti-Tangle. All my previous vacuums would get hair tangled in a single run - I'd clean them at least once a week (neato way more) to get all the hair out. After 24 hours, I see 0 hair stuck. Not one. ... That being said I LOVE the anti-tangle brush. 3 Months and I haven't had to clean the brush one time. It's literally perfect for me."
"I haven’t had any issues with tangles on the rollers ... Honestly, I think it’s doing really well considering I have long hair and shed a lot. ... The split roller on the E28 really works."

"I think its hands down the best all around option right now, especially once you hook it up to the water line and drain, i run it daily in our house and we got rid of our cleaning help because of it."
"I have an even thicker rug than this and my Curv has no issues ... It's the reason I bought mine because I have an even thicker rug than that and no robot could even climb onto it"
"I absolutely do not regret buying the robot vacuum. ... My room is a lot cleaner and dust-free now, and I can tell just by wiping my floor with a wet toilet paper and seeing barely anything picked up. ... I've been getting allergens a ton less, most of which not even in my room. ... All this for the commitment of a weekly emptying is miles more convenient than vacuuming traditionally, as opposed to making a few taps on my phone. ... looking back it was definitely worth the investment."

"It also mops ... considering it self empties, vacuums and mops"

"it is also way more prone to tracking pet messes about, that happened once with a pile of cat vomit and I was a little traumatized."
"it has alleged pet accident avoidance. Well silly me, trusted that, dog had an accident and the vacuum smeared it all over the floor and the docking station. ... I had to manually clean it and have turned off the schedule clean functionality. Will do a manual start after checking the room for pet accidents."
"Firmware currently needs fixing as obstacle avoidance failed poop test ... But the same cannot be said about the obstacle avoidance and navigation. ... If the weird obstacle avoidance gets fixed"
I loved the MaxV last year, it felt very modern at the time. A number of features around nav and sweeps have happened since then, so it feels a little out of date. But... I haven't tested all these subvariants of the Qrevo listed above. The arc looks like the Curv.... so not sure why its named differently.
r/Roborock • Which Roborock model to buy from Costco ? ->what do you mean? As in they can do them, but terribly, or physically cant do corners? The MaxV has the mop flexiarm, the curve and the qrevo ultra has the side brush and mop flexiarm.
r/Roborock • Which Roborock model to buy from Costco ? ->I’ve got the Roborock Q7 Max, one of the cheaper Roborock models. Seems the main difference is that the fancier models do better mopping, which I believe - old mate basically just drags a wet cloth around behind himself 😆 The vacuuming is great though and I love the auto empty.
r/homeassistant • What's the best robot vacuum and mop IYO? Is it really worth its expensive price tag you paid? ->My roborock q7 runs every time we leave the house and comes back home when we do if its not already there
r/homeassistant • Robot Vacuum with good integration? ->Awesome score, congrats! Roomba sucks (no pun). They used to be a leader in the space but skated on name recognition for too long while the Chinese brands swooped in and started kicking their ass. Last I heard they're really struggling and close to bankruptcy. I absolutely adore my cheapo Roborock, it's amazing and I wish I'd gotten it sooner but I was hesitant to get a robot because of all the shit people had to say about Roombas. Shark can be hit or miss these days I've heard. Hope it fulfills all your wildest home cleanliness dreams!
r/AmazonVine • Told myself I'd never buy another robot vacuum.. Now I don't need to! ->I have the Q7 Max. No bells nor whistles but does an excellent job cleaning up after three inconsiderate cats and their messy human.
r/AmazonVine • Told myself I'd never buy another robot vacuum.. Now I don't need to! ->I run a Roborock Q7 Max daily (vacuum only, not mopping) on similar flooring with 3 dogs. It’s fantastic for staying on top of all the shed hair—runs every day at 3pm, auto-empties, and I come home to clean, hair-free floors. My fiancée uses the mopping feature weekly. Personally, I find it just okay… it saves me from mopping the whole house but still requires spot-mopping visibly dirty areas. Of course, we still do occasional full vacuuming (lots of rugs), but the Roborock is surprisingly effective on hair, crumbs, and dust. I used to be anti-robovac after owning a couple weak (comparatively) ones a decade ago, but the tech has seriously improved. Side note since you have cats: I’m paranoid about dog smell with three in the house, so I went deep into the air purifier subreddit and bought a few. They’ve cut down dust and dander, and trusted friends say the house smells great.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s actually worth it for hardwood floors? Tineco? Roborock? Or something else? ->Roborock Q7 Max. Haven’t used our normal vacuum since we bought it 1,5 years ago. No pets but long hair. The first brush was cut in two by long hairs that we don’t remove often enough, but a replacement was cheap. The mop function is ok. Had a dumb one before that didn’t map our home and this is vastly better. Our home is always clean.
r/Apartmentliving • What are the best robot vacuums you've tried - Do they really keep the apartment clean everyday? ->I got the Q7 for $250 so $1800 seems absolutely insane to me but do you boo
r/Roborock • Should I drop $1800 on a robot vacuum or go cheaper? ->I've tried an entry-level Roomba, and it was OK for a few years before having battery issues. I replaced it with an expensive s9+ that started having problems right after the warranty was out, and support was pretty useless. The >$1k model wasn't noticeably better than the <$400. The one big thing I did really appreciate is the self empty canister that I only needed to change monthly or so. After my wife got too annoyed with all my hacky fixes for the Roomba we went with a relatively inexpensive Roborock q7 Max which has been great so far. The only thing I miss is having the standalone self emptier. I'm sure your mileage will vary between brands and models, but so far in my experience, no the more expensive isn't worth it. I have no idea what the best is.
r/homeassistant • What's the best robot vacuum and mop IYO? Is it really worth its expensive price tag you paid? ->I just got the Roborock Q7 and I love it! It also mops and is quieter than my roomba. It’s not totally quiet but my roomba was distracting when I was working while this one is not Edit: I should also add that the white one is on sale on Amazon for about $350 which is a steal considering it self empties, vacuums and mops. Before the black one was on sale so make sure to check the different color options for what is the best price currently!
r/workingmoms • What are the best robot vacuums currently that you've tried and found really effective for daily cleaning? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
